Been in & out of 3FC for a while - I had a series of injuries but was able to bounce back and refocus on myself. I've lost over 15lb so far, slow & steady as I am nursing. Now that little girl is eating more solid foods though I am not as stressed over dropping my supply. I am still keeping an eye on my milk, but with a nice stash and a backup of food for her it's not as stressful as when she was exclusively breastfed.

Either way...
I'm following a calorie count of 2400 daily! It feels like so much! I've maintained my current weight (177) for almost 2 weeks. I'm thinking of cutting my calorie count back by 100 or 200, so I can see a small loss as I am currently over weight.

Still healing from chest cold. Hoping to be able to walk a little tomorrow. I have a 5k Saturday so I NEED to be well enough to run. The last time I worked out was Friday, did 3.2 miles prepping for the 5k. Felt congested later that day and it was all down hill from there!!

I am calorie counting so that I can see how my calories are coming together over the months and had 1793 calories yesterday. And I am generally averaging 1700-2000 a day depending on what I am doing and craving and I am 34 weeks pregnant at the moment.

I was originally doing 1800 calories. I figured what I would eat to lose weight at my current weight then added 300. But I was starving all the time!! So I checked some webpages and their math recommended like 2700! I decreased it to 2400 on my own. And honestly I go over some days because by night time even after my after dinner snack my stomach is growling. Before I started counting calories I was gaining steadily. I can only imagine how much I was eating!

Although I have been sick the past week, I am also running (run/walking really) so I eat back those calories. I don't feel that active otherwise, but I guess I'm pretty busy chasing after other kids.

I am doing WW, so I'm not counting calories, but I have 35 points (7 extra for BFing). I tried to count calories when I was pregnant and I was eating around 2500/day I think... I was hungry ALL the time and on bedrest after my 2nd trimester, so I ate pretty horribly... hence the WW now, LOL.

I am so excited because I finally joined a gym and on Monday I go in for my fitness assessment and then I will have a personalized plan put together for my fitness goals. Plus I will be doing Zumba once a week, my fav workout!
